[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I loathe Murphy and want the SB to fire his ass.

But I am pretty impatient with parents who don't want to acknowledge other needs in the community beyond schools and who refuse to name what they're willing to give up -- things that will come at a personal cost to them -- in order to get the building they want.

I am willing to fault Arlington for not consistently presenting options in a way that requires parents to do so. But parents seem happy to engage in magical thinking, so the blame is not all on one side. [/quote]

Our family will gladly give up every single dollar being spent to support affordable housing and all other affiliated costs including social services.  We don't live in affordable housing, but the County and all the AH proponents say that affordable housing is important and beneficial to all Arlingtonians.  Well, I'm willing to give up that benefit.

More parkland.  I love living in Arlington because of all the greenspace, however I'd rather my child actually have a seat in a real classroom building rather than yet another park to play in.

What else? I'd be willing to pay higher taxes directed at school capacity solutions.  [/quote]
